Château Doisy Daëne

Sauternes & Barsac

Grand Cru Classé en 1855

The Dubourdieu family

Château Doisy Daëne, included among the second growths in the 1855 classification, is located on the Barsac limestone plateau in the Sauternes appellation. It has belonged to the Dubourdieu family since 1924.

Four generations have made fine white wine here from father to son: Georges (1924-1948), Pierre (1949- 1999), and Denis who worked hard to promote Doisy Daëne’s unique qualities around the world.
Denis Dubourdieu was also Professor of Oenology at Bordeaux University and a consulting oenologist with an international reputation. Since 2016, his sons Fabrice and Jean-Jacques have taken over managing the estate.

The wines have their own special style, with bright fruit concentrated by “noble rot” as well as lively acidity, excellent balance, and delicate flavours. Doisy Daëne’s much-appreciated personality reflects both its excellent limestone terroir and a long family tradition of quality.
